When a band that has been around for more than 40 years goes on the road, fans have to be prepared for the possibility that this go-round may be the last.

While AC/DC isn’t officially calling this a farewell tour, the fact that singer Brian Johnson had to leave the tour after a doctor said he was risking total hearing loss means it’s unlikely he’ll take the stage with the band again.

4/10. I was never a big fan, though there was peer pressure to be.

Hate em althoughh their albums make real nice targets for a little morning target practice with the .22 off the back deck.

Sound like their song “Shoot to Thrill” fits the situation you described.

I don’t remember hearing too much about them until the 80’s. I was more into country and bluegrass music back then.

The only pressure I had was from a Jr. High kid who walked up to me (I was in 10th grade or so) and asked me "If I liked AC/DC". I told him "No." Then he accused me of being a homo. Junior high school logic. You can't beat it.

“Brian looks funny with hair...”
That’s because it’s Bon Scott

AC/DC - Highway to Hell

1980,We played this song,leaving my home town to go to college in the big city, with my buddy in his 1976 Chevelle,we were stoned, it was foggy,and we were free!

That's all I know about AC/DC.

IIRC, the album was "Highway to Hell". A friend's college roommate had played it over and over and over at a party they hosted the night before. The next morning, whilst having coffee on the back deck, we took matters into our own hands while the roommate was sleeping it off. 😈
